I walk into the corner of my room See my friends in high places
I don't know which is which or who is whom They've stolen each other's faces
Janet is there with her high head and hair And full of bedroom feathers
Janet is known to make dead men groan In any kind of weather
I crawl over to her I say hey baby I say hey Janet You are the one you are the sun And I'm your dutiful planet But she ain't down with any of that Cause she's heard that **** before And I say oh yeah you're right Cause I see Betty X standing by the door With more news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere
And it's getting strange in here
Yeah it's getting stranger every year
More news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere alright now
Now Betty X is like Betty Y minus that fatal chromosome
Her hair is like the wine Dark sea in which sailors come home
I say hey baby I say hey Betty X I lean close up to her throat This light you are carrying is Like a lamp hanging from a distant boat
It is my light says Betty Betty X says This light ain't yours And so much wind blew through her words That I went rolling down the hall For more news from nowhere
More news from nowhere
And it's strange in here
Yeah it gets stranger every year
More news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere
I turn another corner I go down a corridor and I see this guy He must be about one hundred foot tall And he only has one eye
He asks me for my autograph I write nobody and then
I wrap myself up in my woolly coat And I blind him with my pen Cause someone must have stuck something in my drink Every thing's getting strange looking Half the people have turned into squealing pigs The other half are cooking Well let me out of here I cried And I went pushing past
And I saw Miss Polly singing with some girls I cried struck me to the mast For more news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere
It's getting strange in here
And it gets stranger every year
More news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere
Well then a black girl with no clothes on She danced across the room We charted the progress of the planets Around that boogie woogie moon
I called her my Nubian princess Gave her some sweet back fat ass jive Spent the next seven years between her legs A pining for my wife But then by and by it all went wrong I fell washed up on a shore
She stared down at me from up in the storm And I sopped up on the floor For more news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere
And don't it make you feel alone
Don't it make you wanna get right on home More news from nowhere
More news from nowhere let me hear it now
Well here comes Elena with two black eyes She's given herself a transfusion
She's filled herself with panda blood To avoid all the confusion
I say The sun rises and falls with you And various things about love But a rising violence in me cuts all my circuits off Well Elena she starts screaming Her cheeks are full of psychotropic leaves
Her extinction was nearly absolute When she turned her back on me For more news from nowhere
I said more news from nowhere
And it's getting strange in here
Yeah it gets stranger every year
More news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere alright alright
I bump and crash into Deanna Hanging pretty in the door frame
All the horrors that have befallen me Well Deanna is to blame
Every time I see you baby You make me feel so unalone
And I wipe my face into her dress Long after she'd gone home With more news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere
And don't it make you feel alone
Yeah and don't it make you wanna get right back home More news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere alright
And don't it make you feel so sad Don't the blood rush to your feet
To think that everything you do today Tomorrow is obsolete
Technology and women
And little children too Don't it make you feel blue
Don't it make you feel blue
For more news from nowhere
With more news from nowhere
Don't it make you feel alone
Yeah and don't it make you wanna get right back home More news from nowhere
Yeah more news from nowhere one last time
Well I gotta say
Yeah I gotta say
Goodbye goodbye goodbye
